| that the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
Roads new plan of having train-coilectOrs,
whose sole duty is to collect tickets and
fares Iand passes until the dead line of
April is reached, has resulted
in a large increase of receipts,
enough to pay the wages of the
new men three times over. Without
accusing the former conductors of dishon-
esty it is worth noting that the expert
ment IS q valuable one, and that the
American system of fare collecting is q
loose makeshift, and always was, and that
it ought to be reformed. Even with
uniformly upright conductors there will
never fail to be daily evastOns
resulting from various degrees of fraudu-
lent intent so long as dependence is placed
upon single individuals ability to go
through half-dozen we'll filed cars and
unerringly pick cut the ore, two or
dozen people who boarded the train at
the last station.
Receiver John G.. Brown, for the re
celvers of the Texas and Pacific, has
issued the following "pass" circular:
"The receivers of the Texas and Pacific
Railway. having been advised by legal
counsel that the act of the Congress of
the United States known as the inter
state commerce law is intended to pro-
hibit the use of inter state passes, except
by officers and employees of railway'cOm-
psnies, therefore direct that all Interstate
passes heretofore issued on the
Texas and Pacific Railway be sent
in st once, except those issued to
officers, employees and bondsmen OF
the Texas and Pacific Railway and Off
GERS and employees of other railway COM
panies, and so designated on their face.
On and after April l, 1887, no interstate
passes OF any other character or descrip
ton will be recognized by conductors or
other officers Of the Texas and Pacific
Railway; and after the date aforesaid, all
the officers and employees of the receivers
are directed not TO issue any passes for
the free transportation of persons or
special cars from one state into another
over the lines of the Texas and Pacific
Railway, except for officers and employees
of railway companies"

The Issue at Morgan.
Special to the Gazette.

special 10 the GaZeLte.
MORGAN, TEX, March 2S.-SInce the
county seat contest in which Morgan and
Meridian participated about four years
ago no issue has so absorbed the public
interest as the prohibition question has
since the amendment was adopted Every
man one meets on the street is ready for
an argument on the subject. The fact
that so many voters in this
precinct who were strongly opposed to
local option when it was voted on here
about two years ago now declare their
intention CT supporting the amendment,
together with the fact that those who
voted on the other side will do the same
thing over again, affords & reasonable
suppOsition that q handsome majority
will be scored at this box by the Prohlbi-
tionists next August.
Nor is the interest in the campaign in
Bosque county confined to this particular
locality, but the whole county is prepar-
ing for the battle, and the victory which
the Prohibitionists will be likely to
achieve will be highly deserved. The fol-
lowing call made by Major Carruth will
be responded 10, it is thought, from
every voting place in the county, and ali
arrangements Will be made which may
be deemed necessary tor successful
campaign.
"By virtue of authority vested in me I
hereby call meeting OF the Prohibition

The Atchison Interested.

NEW YORK, March 28.-Interest in the
Baltimore and OHIO deal was revived to-
day by the sudden departure of Frank G.
Hollins for Baltimore on a special train
this morning. This is strong confrma-
ton of the reports connecting the Atchi-
son with the deal. 1t is probable that
the roads IN which Mr.. Hollins is a
director, especially the Lake Erie ano
Western and the new system of which it
is to form part, will also have an INFER
est in the Baltimore and Ohio purchase.
